Imagine Hamilton bombing down the Esplanade drive , in Singapore, approaching 300km per hour. With no headlights. If you’re wondering what the first ever night F1 Grand Prix is going to be like, think bright. Very bright.
- trail of lighting systems
New-age lighting equipment will bring daylight to the coming Singapore F1on the last weekend of September 2008.
Keith Collantine from F1 Fanatic UK reports about the the preparation Singapore has done at no expense spared:
Here are few pictures showing just how bright the lighting will be at the inaugual Singapore Grand Prix this weekend:

They’ve also tested out the lighting system that will be used for flag warnings:

Concerns have been expressed by drivers and fans about the safety of racing at night – but from these pictures it looks as though the race will be very well-lit.
According to the organizers the pit building is complete and resurfacing work on parts of the circuit has been completed.
The 2008 Singapore Grand Prix will be held on 26-28th September. It will be F1’s first night race and is expected to be followed by Malaysia in 2009 and possibly several other Asian circuits in the near future. The scheduled race will be held on the third day of the race weekend, September 28, 2008. The 5.067km long track is composed of technical high speed turns and long straights with lots and lots of overtaking points that will surely keep the crowd on their toes. The F1 Singapore Grand Prix will be first street race in Asia and is one of three races in the 2008 F1 calendar to run anticlockwise. The cars will run in down town Singapore along the garden city’s beautiful skyline and some historic places lit up for the night race.

Just downloaded the newest entrant in browser market – Google Chrome. So whats the difference Google is making by launching their own browser in such fierce competition between arch-rivals Microsoft and friends Mozilla?
B*Chronicles Chromified
Here are some pointers on the Google Chrome website:
Google Chrome is a Open Source browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier.
- One box for everything – Type in the address bar and get suggestions for both search and web pages.
- Thumbnails of your top sites – Access your favorite pages instantly with lightning speed from any new tab
- Shortcuts for your apps – Get desktop shortcuts to launch your favorite web applications
OK, but the ultimate question is WHY? – there is an answer for this too: According to Google, we spend most of out online time in a browser – search, chat, email, blog, bank, catch up with friends, read news, follow sports.. all with a browser. So in order to make our lives simpler, Google brought us this Chrome – On the surface its simple and straight, under the hood, there is a strong browser that runs complex web apps. Each and every tab is an isolated ’snadbox’ that prevents the other tab from crashing and provides protection from rogue sites. There is a very strong and new JavaScript engine, V8 to help pages load faster.
Well is it fast enough?
hmm… , so far I have not experienced a lag in the working of the Chrome. But I cannot really say that given the speed of my internet connection 
. but nagging issue that i have noticed is that Face Book does not work properly in it … specially the POKE function from your home page. hope they will do something about that.
Why dont you try it and let me know: Get Google Chrome
